Video 1 - How Sports Parents Can Give Feedback to a Coach
PARENTS
PARENTS – Starting 5ive Basketball Club parents must build up and support their player, other team members, and parents of other team members. Parents must possess high moral principals, be honest and fair, and set a superlative example for others. Parents are also responsible for providing suitable arrangements for the lodging, meals, and transportation of their player to practices, clinics, and tournaments. Parents are expected to abstain from unprofessional conduct such as: disrespect toward or harassment of game officials, fans athletes, or coaches; ethnic or racial slurs; and unsportsmanlike conduct. We expect parents to get involved with their player in practice at home.
FUND RAISING
All players and parents are expected to participate in the fund raising activities. Each player is required to raise a minimum amount of money each year. Without the fundraising program, the cost per player to participate in our club would be exorbitant!
Starting 5ive parents are openly encouraged to participate in our club. There are many areas where parents can contribute, whether skilled in basketball or not. They include:
Assistant coaches - Parents can help with drills during practice and assist on the bench during games, attending to injured players, supplying towels and water, encouraging the team, tracking substitutions, etc.
Statisticians - Game stats are an important part of developing players. To accurately track player performance, we need two stat keepers per game.
Trainer - Anyone who knows CPR and has a basic background in first aid is welcome to volunteer for this position. Unfortunately, our boys do risk injury every time they step on the court. A background in weight lifting would also be helpful for this position as you could develop a strength training program for each boy and supervise their progress.
Team videographer - Video tapes of games are an exceptional tool to aid the coach in determining areas needing improvement.
Fund Raising Committee - Parents who serve on this committee would be in charge of carrying out the current fund raising plan, and developing new methods for obtaining funds for the club.
Solicit Donations of Consumables - We use tons of bottled water, towels, and first aid supplies (especially cold packs) during the season. If you know a business person who sells these things. Don't be shy. Ask for a case of water, or something else.
Other Committees - Parents also have the opportunity to serve on the Tournament Committee, the Recruiting Committee, or the Publications Committee.
